The substrate (700) may be electrically connected to a main substrate of camera module. The substrate (700) may be supplied with a power or flown with an electronic signal controlled by the main substrate of camera module. The substrate (700) may be electrically connected to the third elastic member (630). The power or electronic signal outputted from the substrate (700) may be transmitted to the first sensor (930) through the third elastic member (630), and may be transmitted to the first coil (300) from the first sensor (930) through the second elastic member (620). A position information electronic signal of bobbin (200) outputted from the first sensor (930) may be transmitted to the substrate (700) through the third elastic member (630).

Thus, the main substrate may control (feedback control) a power (current) applied to the first coil (300) and the second coil (900) in response to the positions of bobbin (200) and the housing (400). As a result, a more accurate AF function and OIS function can be implemented.

An upper width of the substrate (700) may be greater at least for some portions than a lower width of the substrate (700). As a result, a lower surface of an upper edge of substrate (700) may be exposed to an outside. In this case, the exposed upper edge of substrate (700) may face a protrusion (820) of base (800). The present exemplary embodiment may be characterized by the fact that a lower edge of the substrate (700) is inwardly escaped, and an escape space of substrate (700) is made to be inserted by the protrusion (820) of base (800). As a result, the base (800) can additionally obtain a sealing area contacted by a plurality of lateral plates (120, 130, 140, 150) of cover (100) as much as an area where the protrusion (820) is protruded.

The first lateral surface (811) may be disposed at an opposite side of second lateral surface (vice versa). The third lateral surface (813) may be disposed at an opposite side of fourth lateral surface (vice versa). The first lateral surface (811) may be so disposed as to face the first lateral plate (120) of cover (100), the second lateral surface may be so disposed as to face the second lateral plate (130) of cover (100), the third lateral surface may be so disposed as to face the third lateral plate (140) of cover (100), and the fourth lateral surface may be so disposed as to face the fourth lateral plate (150) of cover (100).

The protrusion (820) may upwardly protrude from an upper surface of body (800) at the base (800). An external surface of protrusion (820) may be formed by allowing an external surface of body (810) at the base to be upwardly extended. That is, the external surface of protrusion (820) may form a plane with the external surface of body (810) at the base (800).

The external surface of protrusion (820) may face internal surfaces of a plurality of lateral plates (120, 130, 140, 150) of cover (100). The external surface of protrusion (820) may be brought into contact with the plurality of lateral plates (120, 130, 140, 150) of cover (100). An adhesive may be interposed between the external surface of protrusion (820) and the plurality of lateral plates (120, 130, 140, 150) of cover (100).

An internal surface of protrusion (820) may face an external surface of a lower portion (second substrate, 720) of substrate (700). The internal surface of protrusion (820) may be brought into contact with an external surface of a lower portion (second substrate, 720) of substrate (700). An adhesive may be interposed between the internal surface of protrusion (820) and an external surface of lower portion (second substrate, 720) of substrate (700).

The protrusion (820) may be disposed underneath an upper portion (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700). An upper surface of protrusion (820) may face a lower surface of upper portion (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700). The upper surface of protrusion (820) may be brought into contact with a lower surface of upper portion (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700). An adhesive may be interposed between the upper surface of protrusion (820) and a lower surface of an upper portion (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700). The upper surface of protrusion (820) may be disposed at a same height as or lower than a lower surface of upper portion (first substrate, 710) of substrate.

Height of protrusion (820) may take a variety of shapes. For example, the height of protrusion (820) may be the same as or higher than an upper surface of upper portion (first substrate, 710) of substrate, and may be lower than or same as the upper surface of lower portion (second substrate, 720) of substrate (700). That is, the upper surface of protrusion (820) may be disposed on a same position as or at a lower position than an upper surface of upper portion (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700). A length (height of protrusion) between an upper surface of protrusion (820) and an upper surface of body (810) of base may be same as or smaller than a length between an upper surface of the upper portion (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700) and a lower surface of lower portion (second substrate, 720) of the substrate (700).

An upper surface of protrusion (820) may be same as or lower than a height of an upper surface of lower portion (second substrate, 720) of substrate. The upper surface of protrusion (820) may be disposed at a position same as or lower than a position of lower surface of upper portion (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700).

That is, in the present exemplary embodiment, as seen in FIG. 11, a height of the protrusion (820) may be located to be in the same position as or in a lower position than an upper surface of lower surface (second substrate, 720) of substrate (700). In a modification of the present exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG. 12, the height of protrusion (820) may be disposed at a same position as or at a lower position than an upper surface of upper side (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700).

As illustrated in FIG. 11, when the height of protrusion (820) is located to be in the same position as or in a lower position than an upper surface of lower surface (second substrate, 720) of substrate (700), there is no change in an area of the upper surface (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700) to thereby enable to obtain a broader mounting area of the second coil (900).

As shown in FIG.12, when the height of protrusion is disposed at a same position as or at a lower position than an upper surface of upper side (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700), although an area of the upper surface (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700) must be reduced, the height of protrusion (820) is made to be formed higher to obtain a broader sealing area between the cover (100) and the protrusion (820). In this case, an inner lateral surface of protrusion (820) may face an outer lateral surface of upper surface (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700).

The height of protrusion (820) may be more than 0.1 mm but less than 0.5 mm. That is, a length (shortest length) from an upper surface of body (810) of base (800) to an upper surface of protrusion (820) may be more than 0.1 mm but less than 0.5 mm. If the height of protrusion (820) is less than 0.1 mm, there is no way of securing a broader sealing between the cover (100) and the protrusion (820) and therefore, it is not preferable. Furthermore, when the height of protrusion (820) is more than 0.5 mm, an area of substrate (800) must be reduced in order to arrange the protrusion and therefore, it is not preferable.

The height of protrusion (820) may be more than 80% of the thickness of lower surface (second substrate, 720) of substrate (700). That is, a length (shortest length) from an upper surface of body (810) of base (800) to an upper surface of protrusion (820) may be more than 80% of thickness of lower surface (second substrate, 720) of substrate (700). If the height of protrusion (820) is less than 80% of thickness of lower surface (second substrate, 720) of substrate (700), there is no way of obtaining a broader sealing area, and therefore it is not preferable.

The protrusion (820) of the present exemplary embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11, may not be overlapped with the upper surface (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700) to a vertical direction. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and as shown in a second modification of FIG. 13, the protrusion (820) may be overlapped with the upper surface (first substrate, 710) of substrate (700) to a vertical direction.
